Lucy
I love that C.S. Lewis has a sense of humor that goes unnoticed because he is so discrete about it. In the fifth Chronicles of Narnia book The Dawn Treader, Lewis describes Lucy and Edmond’s cousin Eustace quite oddly. He is an only child that always gets his way, calls his parents by their first name, and is very opinionated. He further goes on to talk of how Eustace only likes books if they have pictures of fat foreign children posing in exercise models. What an odd thing to write and how commonly that is probably read over when people are working through the Narnia series.
